I remember when this study came out. I was in college and I couldn't believe it. So I asked some conservative classmates and sure enough, they thought Colbert was just the conservative Jon Stewart. One in particular became EXTREMELY mad at me about this study. He got a job in Texas in politics.

People talk about the decline of media literacy but it's been an issue for centuries. Some people really aren't operating on any high level They thought Colbert's Colbert character was a conservative, for instance

Conservatives Think Colbert Is Seriouswww.motherjones.com A study shows your personal political beliefs determine your interpretation of The Colbert Report.

Rudy Giuliani, who DID speak up about what he helped Donald Trump do on January 6th, has just been disbarred as a result.

Steve Bannon is in prison because he'd rather be there than confess what he knows about Donald Trump and January 6th. Peter Navarro is in prison because he'd rather be there confess what he knows about Donald Trump and January 6th.

One thing that annoys me about the Democratic consultant class is how they act like they're brass-knuckle streetfighters and yet don't have the stones to run nonstop ads about Trump's extensive connections to Jeffrey Epstein. It's all true! It's documented! There are photos!

Trump later appointed this federal prosecutor as his first U.S. Secretary of Labor. www.kare11.com/article/news...

What happens when people with the institutional power to fight evil people don’t fight is those without institutional power despair. You can blame desperate people for the suffering that’s coming their way, if you want, but doing so doesn’t distinguish you from fascists.

Nobody being above the law falls into the self-evident truths category. Trump v US was the classic no-brainer. The easiest case all session. A 9-0 call, were we not trapped in a political bedlam. This is madness: complete, hallucinatory madness.

Note to self: Sometimes when you are writing, you need to take a step back, get your bearings, take some time, and see what you have, to be able to go forward. Don't be afraid to take some think time if your novel doesn't come out all at once. #amwriting #author #writing

The United States has always been a democracy for some and a brutal authoritarian regime for others, and the effort to expand it to democracy for all has led to a 70+ year backlash culminating in SCOTUS claiming that kings are totes cool and also judges are the ones to coronate them

These are the terms in which we need Democrats to be talking, & we need a platform that reflects it. If I am going to communicate to voters how critical this moment is, I need to be able to point to firm action Democrats intend to take to protect democracy against this nonsense.

Obviously, won’t go anywhere in a Republican House, but at least she’s doing something. Hopefully, there’s more coming.

I don't get it, why can't they commit fraud? Congress is doing it, scotus is doing it, the presidents do it, the wealthiest people in the world do it, everyone they are told to look up to and respect are celebrated for it. Why wouldn't they think they could commit fraud? It's the American Way.

Gen Zers are so disillusioned with the economy that they think it’s OK to commit fraudfortune.com A third of Gen Zers either know someone who has participated in payment fraud or have done so themselves.

This machine kills fascists. Be warned.

Lot of folks take this as "doom and gloom." Not at all! Just a reminder to pace yourself. Everybody goes into a war thinking "it'll be over by Xmas." I was literally killing myself. You're in a long game. Hydrate. These regimes eventually eat themselves. But you have to stay alive to see it thru.

I told somebody back in 2016 it would be about 30 years before we unfucked this fever, because that's about the historical length of time that fascist fever runs. Sorry! This knowledge is a curse!

Y'all are being so overly concerned. Remember when SCOTUS ruled on Citizens United, and everyone was worried that it would critically harm democracy? Or when people said that overturning Roe would lead to a huge health crisis for women? *finger to ear* I am being told to shut the fuck up now

I know smut may seem like a frivolous thing to be upset about, but crushing it is part of fascism. Controlling all forms of sexual expression is fascism. Only allowing certain kinds is fascism. Smut peddlers are always canaries in the coal mines.
